The internal component used in the vehicle speed signal amplifier of the speedometer is inappropriate, which may cause the component to burn out and result in inability to display speed.
The fuel pump control unit's connector lacks adequate water-sealing, allowing moisture ingress that causes corrosion of the internal circuit board, potentially leading to board short-circuit. Consequently, the fuel pump may fail to …
Improper tire toe-in adjustment can cause the tire tread to contact the leaf spring when wide tires are installed and the steering wheel is turned to its maximum angle. When wide tires …
Insufficient strength in the fuel tank front mount may cause deformation upon severe frontal impact, resulting in cracks at the weld joint between the mount and tank, leading to fuel leakage. In …
Improper manufacturing of the rear tandem axle housing (non-drive axle) on heavy-duty trucks with dual rear axles may result in cracks developing at the weld. Continued operation in this condition could lead …
Due to improper routing of the front brake hose, the brake hose may contact the front tire during operation. Continued use in this condition may result in brake hose damage, potentially leading …
Due to improper programming in the electric power steering control unit, steering effort correction may not function. This could result in increased steering wheel operating force.
The pinion shaft retaining nut in the steering gear of the steering system has improper machining, which may cause the nut's clamping force to decrease during use. Consequently, the nut may gradually …
In the brake system, improper routing of hydraulic piping may interfere with the control valve when optional equipment is installed. Continued use in this condition may result in damage to the piping …
The rear suspension drag link material is inadequate, causing corrosion during use that reduces link strength. Road impact may fracture the link, destabilizing vehicle attitude and risking rollover in severe cases.
Engine oil cooler hoses used as replacement parts in the recall work (notification number 2412, dated November 12, 2009) have low hose pull-off pressure in some units. Continued use may result in …
In the brake light (combination taillight) equipped at the rear of garbage collection vehicles, socket terminals may be installed incorrectly. This can cause poor electrical contact between the bulb and socket due …
The connection points between the dump mechanism and cargo bed on three-way dump trucks have insufficient structural strength. Fastening bolts may fracture, causing the dump mechanism to fall. In the worst case, …
In the driver seat airbag, due to inappropriate component changeover instructions, components of different specifications have been assembled, which may result in occupant protection performance during offset collisions not meeting safety standards.
The circuit board material inside the speedometer is inappropriate, causing repeated thermal expansion due to heat from the instrument's night illumination, which may result in an open circuit in the fuel gauge …
In the parking brake system, there is a gap between the guide pipe of the bracket that secures the parking brake cable to the vehicle and the protector that covers the brake …
Improper installation of the cover adjacent to the driver's seat has damaged the electric seat wiring in some vehicles. Continued use in this condition may cause the wiring to short circuit, resulting …
In the brake system linkage mechanism, the mounting bolts of the brake arm pivot shaft may not be adequately tightened. Continued use in this condition can cause the bolts to loosen, resulting …
In the steering system of an agricultural chemical sprayer vehicle, the harness routing for the front wheel steering angle measurement potentiometer is inadequate. During use, this harness may become damaged. As a …
The outer ring of the engine crankshaft pulley has inadequate surface treatment, resulting in insufficient adhesion to the vibration-damping rubber. Consequently, the ring and rubber may delaminate, causing abnormal noise from the …
The fuel hose connecting the fuel pump to the left chamber of the fuel tank is excessively long. When the pump is assembled to the fuel tank, the hose may kink. As …
In large route buses, the braking system may experience brake fluid leakage from the power unit (air master) due to contaminants introduced into the brake fluid from inadequate cleaning of brake piping. …
In bus brake systems, improper flushing of brake piping allows foreign matter mixed into brake fluid to cause leakage from the booster (air master). Continued operation in this condition can degrade rubber …
The routing of wiring connected to the battery positive terminal is improper, and in some cases interferes with the battery box retaining bracket. As a result, the wiring insulation may wear and …
In the anti-lock braking system (ABS), the rear wheel rotational speed sensor wiring connected to the control module (modulator) may be connected in reverse (left and right reversed). As a result, ABS …
In the anti-lock brake system (ABS), the rear wheel rotational speed sensor wiring connected to the control module (modulator) may be connected with left and right reversed. As a result, ABS control …
Due to improper tire cut angle, when driving with studless tires installed and the steering wheel turned to maximum lock, the tire may contact the drag link. Continued use in this condition …
Large tour buses equipped with combustion-type cabin heaters may have improperly designed fuel pump structures in the burner head (combustion chamber). Continued use in this condition may result in fuel leakage from …
The intermittent operation relay circuit built into the wiper actuator is inadequately designed. Repeated intermittent operations cause excessive contact wear, allowing wear debris to accumulate beneath the relay or contacts to detach. …
The left knuckle arm of the steering apparatus has insufficient strength. Under tire reaction forces during cornering and power steering thrust, the knuckle arm may fracture, resulting in loss of steering control.
